Many Voices, One Nation 2 Update
Originally planned to open in mid-November, the Many Voices, One Nation 2 exhibition has been delayed for a short while due to the current firebreak lockdown in Wales. We will now be reopening from 4th December, with bookable slots available during the first few days to keep our visitor numbers at permitted levels. We will also have opportunities for people who can’t visit us in Cardiff to enjoy the exhibit online and to join in talks, debates and other activities. More details will be available on our website shortly, and in next month’s newsletter.

October Featured Artist – Robert Rutöd
This month’s featured artist from our European Prospects database is Austrian photographer Robert Rutöd with his project ‘Right Time Right Place’.
“The images revolve around the question of whether it is possible for a person to be in the right place at the right time. Is the ideal state of space and time something we are awarded or is it a state we have long been living in without being aware of our good fortune? I hope I have not succeeded in answering this question.”
